Stayed two nights, it rained both nights I was there but didn't spend much time in the hotel anyway. walking distance to the warf and marina district. I got a room with a king size bed, not the prettiest hotel from the outside but the rooms exceeded my expectation of a hotel that price. very clean

The Opal isn't a chain and has a charm all it's own. It's not the newest or the fanciest hotel, but was very nice and just what I was looking for. The location was great for all the walking we did throughout the city. Even the cab rides weren't too expensive because most places were close in all directions. My only complaint was the room had the world's smallest bathroom. I bumped my head on the corner of the shelf to the right of the sink and when I pulled my head back I hit it on the door. As the say, "the bathroom was so small I had to go outside to change my mind."

We got to the hotel around 3pm, check in went very smooth. Roberto was very helpful with everything, set us up with the big bus too. Very convenient to the waterfront, take the 30 bus right off chestnut to and from hotel. Very nice , we walked the first day before we found the bus. Drops you close to cable cars too. Really cool. I would definatly recommend this if you want to be close without all the hassles of cabs and such. Thank you ......

I stayed here for a 3 day vacation. It was my first time in San Francisco and for the price and on short notice this is a great hotel. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions i had. Rooms were clean, and the beds were comfortable. The AC was a little loud but it was nice in the heat. The only issue, and it's not with the hotel was its a ways away from anything a tourist like me would want to see without taking cabs everywhere.

Positive: Good Location. Reasonable price. Free Parking
Negative: Female front desk employee clearly wants to do something else with her career. She checked me into a room at 5:30 that was not cleaned yet. Walls are thin, and I had loud neighbors that kept me awake until 2pm on a Thursday.

Room smelled musty No windows to open had to leave door open while in the room ,carpet worn and not barefoot worthy bring slippers... No coffee in room noisy from airplanes but to be expected near the airport.. Garden area and landscaping much needed attention not like the pictures on web site. Not worth the additional charge for garden side.breakfast ok

This spot is close to our children's apartment. It's perfect for a visit, with access to lots of restaurants and shopping. The motel style building is perfect for lots of comings and goings. No need to fuss with a hotel lobby, elevator and long hallways. It is not the kind of place we would ordinarily choose, since it is quite bare bones. But the location is great, and the room is comfortable for our purpose.
